Why are most modern constellations composed of faint stars or located in the southern hemisphere?

Geography
1 answer:
vaieri [72.5K]3 years ago
3 0
Astronomers from areas in the northern latitudes developed different constellations and maps of the sky than their southern counterparts, as faint stars weren't visible to them. In the 18th and 19th centuries, there weren't constellations in the southern hemispheres, so astronomers, instead, invented them.

GEOMETRY<br> Help me please!!!!
azamat

Answer:

x = 10

y = 6

Explanation:

If ∆ABC is congruent to ∆GEF, therefore their corresponding side lengths would be equal to each other. Thus:

x - 8 = 2 (corresponding sides of both triangles are equal)

Add 8 to both sides

x - 8 + 8 = 2 + 8

x = 10

Also:

x - y = 4 (corresponding sides of both triangles are equal)

Plug in the value of x

10 - y = 4

10 - y - 10 = 4 - 10

-y = 4 - 10

-y = -6

-y/-1 = -6/-1

y = 6

B. What ultimately fuels the water cycle? (4 points)
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

The sun

Explanation:

The sun drives the water cycle. The sun evaporates water from the oceans, seas, lakes and other bodies of water and also from plants through the process of transpiration. The evaporated water then forms into clouds and when it gains enough mass it falls back to Earth. This is a closed system so that means that this is the same amount of water that has always been present on Earth.

Many times a map scale will show distances in both miles and
fiasKO [112]

The correct answer is - kilometers.

Very often, the map scale is showing distances in both miles and kilometers. The reason for this that the majority of the countries in the world use the metric system, thus the kilometers are a must, but also there countries that do not use this system, thus they include the miles. In this way, the map scale can be used by people that both use and not use the metric system in their daily lives.

The map scale is a very important element on the maps. Its purpose is to enable the reader of the map to be able to measure the distance from one place to another, thus to be aware of the real distance in the real space.
